Your menu assignment


In your e-book, put down your menu. Try and have a meal, then a week's worth of meals that doesn't exceed your budget and meats the Canada Health Guidelines.
From WinnipegGroceryonline, I was able to find

1 loaf of bread-4.79 32 slices, so 6 slices would be 90cents
90 cents-Grain products

Gala Apples (on sale!) 2.82/kg About 6 apples in a kilogram
2.82-Fruits and Veggies

1 Litre of Skim Milk 1..51
1.51-Milk and Milk prices

PeanutButter on sale 6.98/kg which is .698/g  1g is about 1ml in volume for peanut butter. 30ml is one serving of protein. So, 30*.698=21cents for a serving of protein
63cents for 3 servings a day of Protein

When planning your meal, try for a variety. It would be boring and not healthy to always get your protein,grain,fruits&veggies from the same source.

1cp of grapes weighs about 125g
